Protocol Category
Troubleshooting and Problem Management
Corrective action protocols for in-crop problems using Blue Aqua products. Covers rainy season events, phytoplankton crash, blue-green algae (BGA), overbloom (5-day schedule), and high organic load with low phytoplankton (8-day extended schedule).
3 protocols in this category
Best for: All pond types, both species, grow-out phase during rainy season
Phytoplankton Crash, BGA, and Overbloom
A 5-day corrective schedule for three related in-crop problems: phytoplankton crash, blue-green algae (BGA) presence, and overbloom conditions. Uses FytoShade, SoilGro, molasses, NitroGro, and optionally AmmoTrap if total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) exceeds 3 ppm.
Best for: All pond types, both species, during grow-out when phytoplankton crash, BGA, or overbloom occurs
High Organic Load, Low Phytoplankton
An 8-day extended corrective schedule for conditions where high organic load is combined with low phytoplankton. Days 1 to 5 follow the phytoplankton crash, BGA, and overbloom protocol exactly.
Best for: All pond types, both species, during grow-out when high organic load is combined with low phytoplankton
